2017 Map of Dome Lake

About this map

Bighorn National Forest dominates this high-altitude landscape where the headwaters of numerous creeks begin their descent. The area is defined by a complex network of alpine lakes and reservoirs, including Dome Lake Reservoir, Sawmill Reservoir, and Weston Reservoir, reflecting early water management efforts in the region. Notable terrain features like Saddle Mtn, Elk Peak, and the prominent Dome Rock provide orientation for travelers crossing Rock Chuck Pass or Elk Pass. For those moving through the backcountry, the Shell Lakes High Trail offers a historical route across the southern portion of the sheet. The density of named water bodies, from Lake Fontanalis to Geddes Lake, highlights a geography shaped by glacial activity and sustained by seasonal snowpack within the Sheridan and Johnson county borders.
